Hi Marius!

Thanks for answering me. We're using unix servers and we want to
install git / gitorious on those servers. What we're not sure is if
the repository is gonna crash, I mean, If git-1 (imagine 2 gits / one
per server) tryies to write a code into the disk (that is a filer and
its shared as mount points) and the other git-2 process on the other
server wants to write at the same time. Whats gonna happen? This
semaphore is managed by software? Or its not managed? Actually I dont
know if this question belongs to gitorious or git only.

thank you!

Renato
